TAKE A BREAK : HAVE A LAZY DAY




“What is your plan today” asked my friend on a phone call. “ Nothing” I answered . “ what do you mean nothing “ he asked again with some force in his voice as he definitely wanted to make some plan for today. “ Well nothing simply meant nothing,  I am going to  be a lazy dog lying on my bed for the whole day while watching some movies” I said. “ Ok so how about I come to your place and bring some more collection of movies and we enjoy the movies while eating pizzas and drinking some pepsi” He gave me another offer, and this was an offer I could not refuse as it suited my lazy day  perfectly. And I told him to come over while I started dialing the number of Dominoes and went into my imagination.
            We live such a hectic life, everything has to be on time and  as per the given schedule,  what we will be doing the whole day is decided by the clock that is hanging on the wall and not by our freewill. We work, study ,go to gym, go party , we hang out with friends,   and what not. But in  this fast paced life we miss the most important aspect of it, that is giving some time for yourself, some selfish time just for you and no one else except if you want someone to join. If we keep going with this way, there would definately come a point at which our brain and body would give up, and we will loose in the race of life for which we are working so hard so  just giving some peace to your mind , some idle time once in a while so that it can prepare itself to cope with the pressures of day to day life once again. Having  a light hobby like reading usually helps.
            So basically after a week of weak of Studying, workying, gyming, partying, going out, going around, just  reward your mind and body with a dull , lazy day. Just sleep, read a novel, read a newspaper, watch few movies, spend some time with family after all they are the reason you work so hard for, and if you dont give time to them what is the point of all the hard work, play cards with them or enjoy some classic board games such as Ludo , chess or snakes and ladders etc.  It is these small things that save you from going crazy due to the massive workload and expectations of the world. Its important to be hardworking and dedicated to your goals but don’t let these goals drive you insane and don’t let these goals dictate every second of your life against your own wishes and desires.  So to sum it up , give yourself a lazy day and you would be amazed  how fresh you could feel after that,  and then focus on your life yet again with a fresh mind. Its your life and you should dictate your life, don’t let your life dictate you , and I hope my pizza comes soon .
